Chapter 92 The Curse of the Third Party

Two confrontations.

It was enough to make Chimianliang have a deep understanding of Yu Ke's methods.

As Ye Yingtong speculated, it no longer tried to confront head-on, but used various means to create "accidents".

Broken street lights, out-of-control harvesters, flying iron nails

Throughout the afternoon, Ye Yingtong was like a human-shaped jinx, and all kinds of unreasonable accidents would happen wherever he went.

Fortunately, Yu Ke had expected this, and he really confronted Chimianliang and "guarded" Ye Yingtong closely.

Outstanding perception plus strong personal strength repeatedly saved danger.

However, considering that there are many ordinary people in the ranch, in order to avoid hurting innocent people, Yu Ke took Ye Yingtong to the vacant grazing area.

Each person moved a rattan chair.

In addition to the lush wilderness within a radius of hundreds of meters, there was only sunshine and cool breeze.

Ye Yingtong's thin body huddled in a chair, wrapped in a blanket, her pale face facing the orange afterglow of the setting sun. Long-term insomnia made her lips bloodless, her eyes wandered unfocused in the vast wilderness, and her dark circles were particularly obvious.

The short-lived calm made her sleepy, and her eyelids felt heavy as if they were filled with lead.

It was at this time that a can of cold drink was stuffed into her warm neck. Ye Yingtong was startled and hurriedly looked up to see Yu Ke standing next to her, drinking soda.

"It's best to endure it for the last few hours. If you get attacked in a dream, I can't help you."

In between words, Yu Ke kicked the poisonous snake in the bushes and said,

"It's the seventeenth sneak attack. It's been half an hour since the last one. The frequency has dropped significantly. I think that guy is almost tired. Even if ghosts don't have physical strength, they should have energy bars, right?"

Facts have proved that the Red-faced Ghost's ability is limited. It is far from the level of killing by rules like the Ring. Or it is bound by some rules and it is difficult to exert its full strength.

"There is a research department sponsored by the Disaster Prevention Bureau within Danhang University that specializes in supernatural phenomena of spirits. They think that most evil ghosts are a collection of negative energy, resentment, anger, and despair. Therefore, researchers tend to call ghosts curses and believe that as long as the source of the curse is found, it can be eliminated!"

As a folklorist and frequent participant in archaeological activities, Ye Yingtong often communicates with researchers from other parts of the team. In this process, he will more or less come into contact with some knowledge of supernatural phenomena.

"Did the Red-faced Ghost choose you as its target because of a curse?"

Sitting in a rattan chair, Yu Ke suddenly asked,

"According to you, it is a ghost living in the Red Ghost Mask, but now it has left the mask and appeared in this ranch dozens of kilometers away from Danhang City, just to kill you. You hate it so much, did you have a blood feud with it in your previous life?"

Since he promised Ye Yingtong to help her solve the Red-faced Ghost, Yu Ke has been confused, but he didn't find a chance to be alone with Ye Yingtong, so he couldn't speak in front of Luo Ling. Now that they are alone, there is no need to hide it.

The Red Ghost Mask is an old item from a hundred years ago, and Ye Yingtong is only in her twenties. If there is any connection between them, it can only be the latter.

Ye Yingtong is a smart person and quickly understood the implication of Yu Ke's words.

After opening the cold soda and taking a big sip to boost his spirits, Ye Yingtong looked at Yu Ke and said solemnly,

"I didn't hide any information. I still haven't figured out why the Red-faced Ghost targeted me, but the attack after arriving at the farm made me realize a certain possibility."

"You say, I'm listening."

"The Red-faced Ghost is attached to the Red Ghost Mask. This is an established fact. Under normal circumstances, when such spirits are away from their attached existence, their abilities in all aspects will show a downward trend. On the contrary, the Red-faced Ghost has shown an unreasonable enhancement."

Raising his hand and kneading his eyebrows, forcing his brain to work, Ye Yingtong glanced at Yu Ke, pursed his lips and continued,

"I guess it is bound by the Red Ghost Mask. Only by staying away from the mask can its power be exerted. Combined with its attack behavior of targeting me, it may be my illusion. The Red Ghost Mask seems to be protecting me?"

This idea was so absurd that Ye Yingtong doubted himself after he finished speaking, and looked at Yu Ke with hesitation and panic.

"Want to know what I think of the Red-faced Ghost attacking you?"

Yu Ke raised his eyebrows with his arms around his chest, and suddenly seemed to think of something, and said with a smile,

"It's just my personal guess. Have you ever been jealous of a man? Well, a woman is fine too."

"I don't quite understand what you mean. I've been busy preparing for the postgraduate entrance examination in the past few years and have never been in a relationship."

Isn't the topic span a bit too wide?

"You can think of the Red Ghost Mask as a man, and the Red-faced Ghost is the little woman who depends on it. They used to live a happy life, and they were inseparable. However, you, as a third party, forcibly intervened and eventually destroyed this happiness."

"The exploration team you participated in discovered the Red Ghost Face. Conversely, it also saw you and thought you were better looking than the Red-faced Liang. It wanted to abandon its wife and chase you. Therefore, your current identity is probably a bit like an uninformed mistress. Do you understand what I mean?"

"."

Yu Ke's wonderful metaphor really shocked Ye Yingtong. At first, she thought it was absurd and illogical, but then she thought about it and felt that it was somewhat credible.

The Red Ghost Face did not allow the Red-faced Liang attached to it to kill Ye Yingtong.

This explains why the Red-faced Liang was subject to various constraints in Danhang City.

Even if it came to the farm, the Red-faced Liang could not take action directly, because that would be noticed by the Red Ghost Face, so it could only kill Ye Yingtong by creating an accident, otherwise it would lead to the breakdown of the "marital relationship".

"Then what should I do? I didn't mean to interfere in their marriage. Bah, I didn't want to develop a relationship with the Red Ghost Face!"

Ye Yingtong covered her face, feeling that her three views were challenged by Yu Ke's explanation.

She really didn't know what she had that could attract the Red Ghost Mask.

"Remember what I told you before that you have to lure the Red Mask out before you can kill it."

Yu Ke stood up from his chair, put his hands on his hips, turned his head and looked at Ye Yingtong,

"What do you think will make it furious and kill you at all costs?"

"NTR?"

Besides taking the postgraduate entrance examination, Ye Yingtong would occasionally read some literary works.

"Right, don't sit here, quickly find a place with good network, download a few videos of the Red Ghost Mask, and then ask Tang Jingyun to go to a nearby supermarket to buy two masks or a picture book, draw the Red Ghost Mask, and that little bitch will definitely not be able to resist and fight you to death!"

Yu Ke whistled, picked up two chairs and walked back, and Ye Yingtong followed closely behind.

Not far away, the Tang brothers began to prepare the barbecue grill and dipping sauce, and Luo Ling was responsible for washing vegetables, stringing corn and potato chips.

There will be a barbecue party later. Yu Ke thinks this is the time for Ye Yingtong to show her acting skills. After walking a distance, the latter couldn't help but grab Yu Ke's arm and asked in a low voice with some entanglement,

"We are a little too hasty to draw conclusions like this. After all, it is just an inference based on the existing information. The actual situation may be completely contrary to what we think."

"I never said that this speculation is 100% accurate. Even if I guessed wrong, you have nothing to lose. You have to wait for it to appear anyway, right? It doesn't matter where you wait?"

Yu Ke just proposed a plan that can be tried.

After all, no matter how absurd the speculation is, it is better than waiting for death.

At least there is a direction to work hard.

"When the Red-faced Ghost takes revenge, it will definitely need the help of external objects. It is difficult to react and catch it in the first place."

"Don't worry about that. I will give it an irresistible opportunity to attack."

Yu Ke knew that this method could only be used once, and it was best to ensure that the enemy was defeated in one blow, otherwise it would be easy to have more troubles.

"Whether my plan can succeed depends on how angry you can make the Red-faced Ghost. For your own life, try your best to play the role of the mistress. If I guess wrong, we can only wait. I don't care, but you will be in danger."

Ye Yingtong didn't reply. She was probably brewing emotions and preparing to play.

Rather than waiting to die, she was willing to work hard for her own survival, even if Yu Ke's plan sounded a little unreliable.

While it would take some time to sort out the ingredients, Yu Ke asked Tang Bin to go to the supermarket as quickly as possible.

Although he couldn't find a mask similar to the Red Ghost Mask, blank sketchbooks and pencils were easy to buy.

The barbecue party started as usual.

Yu Ke and his friends were eating and drinking, and the atmosphere was quite lively. Ye Yingtong, who was sitting next to Yu Ke, put her phone on the table and opened the video shot by the exploration team before delivering the red ghost mask to the disaster prevention bureau. She turned up the brightness and set the angle so that people around could see it.

Her drawing skills were very good. Even if she was tracing the video, she could still capture the details of the red ghost mask.

She drew several sketches in succession, bent them into the shape of a mask and pasted them on her face.

She deliberately made an unsatisfied expression in the middle, bit the end of the pencil lightly, crumpled the drawing paper and threw it aside, tilting her head as if she was imagining what she would look like after wearing the red ghost mask.

The evening breeze from somewhere rolled up the waste draft under the rattan chair and drifted to the fence more than ten meters away in the wind.

Ka La~ Ka La~

Fine cracks emerged from the top of the fence post.

The unscrupulousness of the "mistress" finally touched the bottom line of the "original wife"!

There will be more later
